Is there anyone who sells a replacement speedometer spring for the CA77. My odometer works and it would be nice if my speedo did as well.

Its highly probably that there are good, serviceable items 'out there'. Highly improbable that anyone is marketing speedo springs..... :-(

I will keep on looking on ebay. I have been for a while.

Woodsie,

I would try a speedometer repair shop. It will be a specific spring that will provide a specific resistance to the magnetized cups. They will probably know what spring you need and may have it.

Foreign speedometer repair in San Diego will probably be able to fix you up. May take awhile, but they did my 66 cl77 speedometer and it works great. Been there for a long time and they do all kinds of bike speedos.

Hey guys,

I have a 1965 CB77 speedometer, so it is the tech/speedometer that go in opposite directions. I sent my speedo off to Foreign in San Diego and they made it look great and said they fixed it. Now the tech works, but my speedometer still isn't doing anything. I checked the cable coming from the wheel and it spins. I'm wondering if there might be anything else I'm missing. The bike I have was parted together, so I want to make sure that I don't need a special wheel base or some sort of converter to spin the cable the other way (obviously spit-balling here).

Any info you might have would be killer.

I had that problem and had to replace the speedo drive on the front wheel with one that turned the opposite way.
I found out by getting the wheel off the ground and giving it a good spin backwards. That made the speedo needle move.
